IMPORTANT—READ CAREFULLY 


This list of books for the young has been carefully compiled from 
various authoritive lists of what are regarded as the best books by the 
children’s departments.of the Public Libraries of Pittsburg and Buffalo, 
the list prepared by the Oregon Library Commission and the Department 
of Education of Minnesota, the books recommended by the Wisconsin 
Department of Public Instruction and the excellent Suggestive List of 
Children’s Books compiled by Helen Theresa Kennedy formerly of the 
Wisconsin Library School. 

This catalog is therefore a reliable guide to books of value and 
such as may be justly regarded as the treasures of juvenile literature. 
Only books of tested merit, interest and literary purity find a place in 


' this list. With but few exceptions all the old favorites in story, myth 


rs 


™ and history, together with what is best in modern literature for the 


young, are included in this catalog. 


ABOUT EDITIONS. 


Many books are issued in different, editions. This is especially 
true of standard books not protected by copyright. It need hardly be 


stated that some editions of these books are practically worthless for 


library purposes. In this catalog only such editions are listed as have 
been approved for library use and the careful buyer should not be mis- 
led by differences in prices in making comparisons. For example, such 
a book as The Pilgrim’s Progress in cloth binding may be purchased at 
almost any price, ranging from 25 cents upward. The edition. we fur- 
nish is prepared expressly for younger readers and the details of press- 
work, type and binding are in all respects suitable for library purposes 
and it contains explanatory notes, etc. The same may be said of many 
other standard works and we are sure the trained librarian fully realizes 


the importance of suitable editions. 


VALUE OF THE CATALOG. 
‘This catalog is distinctive in several a particulars: 


First. It classifies the books. 

Second. At the left of each title is given the grade or grades for 
which each book is best suited. This should be helpful in making 
selections. 

Third. Nearly all the books are described by short comment and 
these notes are intended (without laudation), to be descriptive of their 
seope and usefulness. 

Fourth. The publisher’s list price and the wholesale price to li- 
braries are indicated after each title. This should prove a most val- 
uable feature as the purchaser of books usually is restricted to a cer- 
tain amount to be expended and in making up orders from other cata- 
logs it has been difficult to decide how many books could be selected. 
The net prices quoted are probably lower than the books could be 
purchased for elsewhere and these low prices are given to save in- 
tending purchasers the trouble of submitting large lists for quotations 
It is also intended that these quotations will make it unnecessary for 
us, in a large measure, to give quotations on such lists as the prices 
given in this catalog are the best we can give under any circumstances. 


BOOKS NOT LISTED. 
Our catalogs represent but a small part of the books Carried in 
stock. We supply any books wanted whether in our catalog or not at 


the same favorable rates. Our customers should feel no hesitancy in 
placing all their orders with us for books of every kind and description, 
including school or college text books of the various educational pub- 
lishers. 


ABOUT OUR TERMS. 


The net prices quoted in this catalog are, of course, intended for 
orders of some magnitude. The margin of profit being very small, it 
is not expected that we shall be called upon to supply single copies at 
the rates at which we are offering the books. It sometimes happens, 
however, that school officers, teachers, librarians and others intersted 
in educational or library work may at times want only one or more 
books and naturally désire te obtain the lowest possible price. We 
have decided that in such cases we shail accept orders for single copies 
or in quantity at our special net prices provided a remittance sufficient 
to cover the price of. the book or books is sent with the orders. If the 
books are to be sent by mail or book-rate express the cost of trans- 
portation must be included in the remittance. Should it happen that 
more than enough is remitted to cover transportation the surplus will 
be promptly returned. Small parcels of books will be sent by 
express whenever possible. Large orders should be sent by freight. 

Orders of books for schools and libraries will be promptly filled 
without remittance accompanying same provided the orders are signed 
by persons authorized to sign them. It is however, expected, in view 
of the low prices at.which the books are supplied, that bills will be 
paid as soon as books are received and found satisfactory. 


INQUIRIES. 


We are always glad to hear from our friends concerning any book 
or books that may be wanted no matter when or where published. It 
gives us pleasure to provide the information—promptly and intelli- 
gently. We solicit your inquiries. 


If more convenient, this catalog may be used to make up orders. 
The books that are, wanted may be checked in the catalog and the 
catalog mailed to us. When this is done we shall immediately mail 
another copy of the catalog to the person sending us the order. Addi- 
tional copies of this catalog for any legitimate use, will be mailed on 
request.

LIBRARY SUPPLIES 


Card Catalogs 


We were among the first to construct 
ecard catalog equipments, especially adapt- 
ed to the requirements of school libraries, 
and it is and has been our aim to furnish 
materials that are first class in every re- 
spect, and that will give complete satisfac- 
tion. Our catalog cards are made from 
strong linen stock that will stand the test 
of long service. Our method of adjusting 
the round rods to hold perforated cards in 
the drawer of the cabinet saves the librar- 
ian or teacher much annoyance as the rods 
cannot be easily removed by children. 
There are imitations of our Card Catalog 
outfits at little lower prices, but these are 
not cheap at any price. 


Card Catalog Cabinets 





"No. 50. One-Drawer Cabinet. Made of 
oak and well finished; 15 inches long and 
has capacity of 1,000 Catalog Cards. Well 
suited for libraries of less than 150 books.

No. 60. Two-Drawer Cabinet. Made of 
oak and well finished; 15 in. long, and has 
‘ capacity for 2,000 Catalog Cards. Adapted 
to libraries of 200 to 300 books. This cab- 
net while complete in itself, is So made 
that additional sections of two drawers 
each, may be attached under it. These ad- 
ditional sections may be added at any fu- 
ture time, as the growth of the library de- 
mands.

No. 60 LOWER 


For cabinets of larger capacity we fur- 
nish two-drawer sections to fit UNDER 
No. 60 at the rate of $5.50 each. Please 
specify No. 60 LOWER. 


The cut shows an eight-drawer cabinet 
constructed by adding three two-drawer 
sections No. 60 lower to the top two-draw- 
er section No 60. A library of 400 books 
will require approximately a cabinet of 
four drawers, which means one two-draw- 
er section No. 70 and one two-drawer sec- 
tion No. 60 lower. From this data it is easy 
to estimate the capacity in number of 
drawers required for any library by count- 
ing the books and allowing for accessions. 


50 cents per drawer extra if fitted with 
round rods.
